Do you order specific front an rear tyres? Or does the pattern changes once they reaches a bigger width .
I'm curious cuz 'i'll have mine in 255F & 275R on saterday

What passes for tires in the states is different than what is sold over here in DE. I have Michelin PS3's which are simular to PSS's but the thread pattern is different. But my fronts and rear tires have the same thread pattern. There are also suble differences within a tire manufactre like Michelin... I went with LX rated sidewalls - bc I wanted the stiffest sides walls possible since I was ditching my run flat tires for regular PS3's.

I checked two weeks ago on the price of 255's PS3's at my tire dealer... and they had them on special for 225 euros (w/o 19% tax). Normally they sell for around 280 euros w/o tax. I think we have another week or so before the tire prices skyrocket and everyone will change to summer tires.
